TVWise: How did you get involved with TNT’s Mob City?
Louis Lombardi: Frank Darabont was a fan of mine from my time working on 24. He called me up and said we are going to give you a role in the show. We don’t know exactly what role yet. It turned out that my role is one of the main guys in the series. So, Frank being a fan of 24 helped me land the role.
TVWise: Can you tell us about your character Stucky?
Louis Lombardi: I play Micky Cohen’s bodyguard. Micky is played by Jeremy Luke who is a friend of mine, so it worked out well.
TVWise: Why do you think there is such a fascination with that time period and gangsters?
Louis Lombardi: I don’t think it’s just the time period, I think people are fascinated with gangsters in general. Look at The Sopranos which is a modern day gangster story. It’s probably the greatest television show ever. The Godfather is like the number one movie ever. I think people from every walk of life relate to that criminal element. People just love gangsters.
